Impossible to Get
I have a major sock knitting bug going on, but those of you who know me know that i love knitting socks. I love all the wonderful variegated and solid sock yarns out there. The color combination and pattern possibilities are endless.
Now I have to admit; I am giving up on ever getting my hands on some Wollmeise sock yarn :( It seems a multitude of sock knitters out there can find some.... Except me. I'm not a big fan of shopping for overpriced Wollmeise on Ebay.
All the online shops I've looked at for the yarn (such as The Loopy Ewe and the Wollmeise website itself) are always sold out. Just makes me depressed. I've seen pictures of all the wonderful colors of sock yarns they have and I've gotta say that it'd be a dream for me to get a chance to knit with this yarn. Someday, I am hoping to get a skein of a brilliant blue or green Wollmeise yarn.
Don't get me wrong, I still love my richly intense Dream in Color (Smooshy), Claudia Hand Painted, Lorna's Laces, and Knit Picks sock yarns. But boy oh boy does that Wollmeise sock yarn look delicious.
Ok, sorry for the rant, but I just had to get it off my chest. Anyone know of any Wollmeise retailers aside from The Loopy Ewe, Ebay, or the Wollmeise website itself? Or maybe any tips on getting some before they get sold out or as to when they're ever in stock?
